Bengals notes: Hewitt's skills expanding, Hill still searching
A year ago, an undrafted rookie out of Stanford became the leading edge of a powerful running game for the Cincinnati Bengals, when Ryan Hewitt – who helped Cardinal running back Stepfan Taylor rush for over 1,500 yards in 2012 – opened holes for Jeremy Hill to chew up over 1,000 yards last season down the stretch.
Walkthru: Bengals search for a ‘masterpiece’
The Cincinnati Bengals allowed themselves some time to digest, and enjoy, their sixth straight victory over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday afternoon in New York.

A 34-21 win in Buffalo on Sunday left the Bengals one of five unbeaten teams in the NFL. Their 6-0 mark matches the best start in franchise history – they also did it in 1975 and in 1988, the last time they went to the Super Bowl.
Expect Cincinnati Bengals to Get Back to Run-First Ways After Bye Week

Oh...so now the Bengals haven't played anybody?
I present this email as the back story for one of my topics on Sports Talk tonight. I received a similar email last week from another listener.

Roethlisberger Expects To Split Practice Reps With Landry Jones
The Steelers are coming off a stunning come-from-behind 25-13 win led by third string quarterback and the latest Pittsburgh sports hero, Landry Jones.

Who predicted big-play defense would carry the Pittsburgh Steelers?
The Pittsburgh Steelers offense was supposed to be the catalyst. But Le'Veon Bell knows what's up. The defense is fulfilling that role right now. "They've really been holding us in through a lot of the games," the running back said. The Steelers couldn't ask for much more from a defense that gives up yards but doesn't give up points.

Before revisiting this week’s heartbreak, I would like to take just a moment and speak directly to the Cleveland Browns: I believe I can help you. I offer my services out of love, nothing else.

You could put the Browns’ logo on there, call me a consultant or something with more pizazz — we can work out the details later.
